Title: Cardiac repair, resizing and reshaping using the venous system of the heart
Inventor: SABBAH HANI N
IPC: A61L27/00
Filed: 2008-04-10
Granted: 2013-10-03
Abstract: Structurally supportive material is implanted or injected into cardiac veins as discrete masses at various sites in the cardiac venous system to reinforce the myocardium for the purpose of preventing, moderating, stopping or reversing negative cardiac remodeling due to various adverse cardiac conditions, both acute and chronic, or for the purpose of treating localize anomalies of the heart, or for both purposes. The sites may be arranged in a pattern about one or more chambers of the heart such that the masses cooperatively reduce stress in the chamber wall and reduce chamber size. Some patterns also cause a beneficial global reshaping of the chamber. These changes occur quickly and are sustainable, and have a rapid and sustainable therapeutic effect on cardiac function. Patterns of distribution of discrete masses in the heart for global resizing and reshaping may also be used as is or augmented by supplemental patterns to treat localized conditions such as myocardial infarctions and overt aneurysm of the ventricular wall as typically forms in response to large transmural myocardial infarctions. These techniques may also be used to treat localized conditions that may not yet have progressed to cardiomyopathy.

Title: Rapid exchange IOL insertion apparatus and methods of using
Inventor: ANDERSON STEVEN R
IPC: A61F2/16
Filed: 2008-07-17
Granted: 2014-03-27
Abstract: A system for easily transferring an intraocular lens (IOL) from a lens case (670) to an inserter (800), and then into a patient's eye. The lens case has a transfer mechanism (672) therein which retains the IOL until engagement with the inserter. The transfer mechanism may include jaws (700, 704) having a closed configuration for retaining the IOL and an open configuration for releasing the IOL. Engagement of the inserter with the lens case automatically opens the jaws and transfers the IOL to the inserter. The IOL is transferred into a load chamber (844) of a nosepiece (606) rotatably coupled to a handpiece (600). After transfer of the IOL, the nosepiece is rotated from a load position to a delivery position. The IOL may have an optic (710) and a haptic (712a, 712b) coupled to the optic, and the lens case may be capable of configuring the haptic as desired to facilitate its transfer into an inserter and/or into the eye. For instance, the lens case may fold one or both of the haptics over the optic. Preferably, the lens case maintains the haptic in this position during transfer of the intraocular lens into an inserter and/or inserter cartridge. A manifold (662) for easily distributing a viscoelastic medium to the load chamber (844) of the inserter is also provided.
